Submit Comments on Proposed Grade Reconfiguration / Wildwood Closing

Got an opinion about the proposed school closings / consolidation? For it, against it, confused, surprised? Just want more information?

Submit comments ONLINE. This is a PUBLIC COMMENT form, so your comments will be publicly available. (Teachers and staff, or others who wish to remain anonymous, may choose not to include their name / contact information.)

UPDATE: We made a packet of previously submitted comments available, but you can still submit comments! You can use this ONLINE FORM or, at the bottom, use a model blank letter to send your own letter in directly.

In preparation for Monday (10/26) meeting, the Wildwood PGO is soliciting copies of teacher and parent feedback and comments regarding the proposed consolidation of Amherst Elementary Schools (closing Wildwood & Fort River, constructing a new 750-student elementary school for grades 2-6, and converting Crocker Form to a District wide K-1).

We are making all public comments available in an online archive and will have print copies available by the Monday 10/26 meeting, so that parents and community members can inform themselves about the process. Comments submitted thus far are available at https://wildwoodpgo.com/district-reshaping-public-schools/

If you sent a letter to the School Committee or District, or had any other feedback, please send a copy to Laura Quilter / lquilter@gmail.com, who will add it to the archive.
